ÂIf you do not hold the highest expectations and performance of your own regulations, that is a very strong communication to your community that youÂre not going to stand up for law. That is not a model that can contribute to an effective, efficient and proficient municipal operation.ÂŽMiller went on to ask each council member to do some self-evaluation regarding their service to the community.ÂYou undertook an oath to obey the law when you took on these roles,ÂŽ Miller said.

Miller will look into what recourse the Town holds in matters such as these and what can be done to make it right.In other business, a resolution to bring all of the townÂs facilities up to Americans with Disabili-ties Act (ADA) compliance was approved.

** Washington County News | Saturday, March 24, 2018 A3 LOCAL AND STATEBy Eryn DionGatehouse Media FloridaPANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. Â„ When ZooWorld Operation Manager Jess Kiefer spot-ted an unknown man wandering around the grounds before the zoo opened Tuesday, her first thought was about the safety of the animals.She didnÂt know how long heÂd been on the property, she recalled, what heÂd brought with him or if he had possibly gotten to an animal. One thing she did know, how-ever, was that he wasnÂt going to get away.ÂI always wondered, if I found someone who had broken in, what I would do with my Âfight or flightÂ Â„ whether I would fight or fly away,ÂŽ said Kiefer, who lives on the ZooWorld property. ÂI always thought I would fly, but I saw him and I just went after him and grabbed him.ÂŽA highly trained alligator handler, according to ZooWorld Director Kayte Hogan, Kiefer took the man Â„ later identi-fied as 19-year-old Jonah Abraham Â„ down to the ground and put him in an Âalligator hold,ÂŽ putting all her weight on his neck and back to keep his head down and squeezing him with her legs to keep him from squirming away.ÂThat was the first, and only, move I could think of,ÂŽ Kiefer said.While she had Abraham on the ground, Kiefer took out her phone and called 911, turning on the speaker and setting it on the ground so she could talk to dispatchers. She said she had to tell Abraham to be quiet a few times because he was yelling so loudly the dispatchers couldnÂt hear her. When he heard deputies were on their way, Abraham tried to bolt away from her, so Kiefer switched up her grip, putting him in an ÂMMA-styleÂŽ chokehold, according to police reports, and keeping him on the ground until depu-ties arrived.ÂI was a big wrestling fan when I was younger,ÂŽ Kiefer remarked.Hogan arrived at the zoo about five minutes after the deputies, who were waiting outside to tell her Kiefer had subdued the suspect all by herself.ÂThe deputies were like, ÂI didnÂt even have to help,ÂÂŽ she said. ÂEven the deputies were impressed.ÂŽAccording to Bay County SheriffÂs Office reports, Abraham, who is from Eau Claire, Wiscon-sin, scaled the ZooWorld fence about 7 a.m. and broke into an apartment on the property where an employee usually stays, stealing two bottles of alcohol. In speaking with deputies, Abraham reportedly said he had been looking for a ÂvapeÂŽ his friend had dropped during their visit. Deputies noted a Âvery strong odorÂŽ of alcohol coming from Abraham and that he seemed intoxicated.Zoo trespasser in PCB gets put in Âalligator holdÂJess Kiefer, operation manager at ZooWorld, tackled a man trespassing at the zoo Tuesday morning and detained him using a hold she uses to wrestle alligators. The man reportedly had broken in and stolen alcohol from an apartment on the grounds. [JOSHUA BOUCHER/GATEHOUSE MEDIA FLORIDA] When suspect tried to run, employee held him until deputies arrived arrested and booked into the Washington County Jail for possession of paraphernalia. Further charges are pending at this time, offi-cials stated.Following the arrest made in the traffic stop, Washington County Drug Task Force received information that opened an investigation into the distribution of drugs in the area, the release stated.During this investigation, three additional arrests were made after 33-year-old Clifton Antonio Patrick, of Defu-niak Springs, attempted to elude law enforcement as they conducted a traf-fic stop on State Road 20 in Ebro, according to officials. Patrick, the driver of the vehicle, threw a lunch box from the window while travel-ing down Cowford Road, just before disabling his vehicle on a railroad tie.Deputies located the lunch box and found a large amount of marijuana, more than 24 grams of methamphetamine, approximately seven grams of cocaine and multiple prescription pills including con-trolled s ubstance Lortab. More than $8,000 in cash was found in PatrickÂs pants pockets, officials stated in the release.Patrick and passenger Mark John Maczik, 55, of Freeland, Mich., were both taken into custody and booked into the Washington County Jail on the charges of possession of cocaine, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, and possession of meth-amphetamine with intent to distribute.Patrick was also booked on the charges of tampering with evidence and flee and elude with disregard to the safety of persons and property.Also arrested during the investigation was 32-year-old Bridgett Ortega, of Defuniak Springs, for the posses-sion of methamphetamine after investigators located a small bag of methamphetamine in her sock during a search, the release stated.

ÂThe grant program gives priority to restoring service on routes formerly operated by Amtrak. So, if the Gulf Coast line gets approval, the grant money could be used to help restore the line.ÂŽThe spending bill also included $250 in funding for positive train control (PTC) gains railroad safety technologies. Part of the delay with bringing the rail service back to the ÂSunset LimitedÂŽ route, which includes Chipley, is the lack of implemen-tation of PTC.However, now that funding to implement such protocols is available, Gulley said the senator is looking forward to the progress on the project.ÂSen. Nelson is very hopeful that good progress will continue to be made on the project,ÂŽ he wrote.Gulley referenced the 2017 Gulf Coast Working Group report to Congress, which identified options for restoring the service and highlighted some of the challenges, such as capital improvements, station improvements, PTC, work with line oper-ator CSX and approval of the project.ÂThese are issues that the Southern Rail Commission, Amtrak and others are working through,ÂŽ he stated. ÂAs the project moves for-ward, Nelson also helped create programs that can address some of these challenges.ÂŽ AMTRAKFrom Page A1

Call 638-0212. Washington CountyPUBLISHER Nicole P. BareÂ“ eld INTERIM EDITOR Jacqueline Bostick PRODUCTION SUPERVISOR Cameron Everett Last week, Ohio experienced a local version of the misinformed nonsense that is poisoning so much of the civic conversation in America these days when the internet lit up with the ÂnewsÂŽ that a student had been suspended for not joining in an anti-gun walkout protest Â„ another case of liberal public schools indoctrinating their students and punishing conservative dissenters, the instant storyline went. It wasnÂt true, but that didnÂt keep the boyÂs father from getting death threats from one side and attaboys and offers of attorney help from the other. And, while the school district and the boyÂs family have debunked the rumor, the misplaced outrage about it no doubt still is circulating online and will do so indefinitely. The irony is that, as the family tells it, Jacob Shoemaker didnÂt want any part in the raging controversy over gun control, which is white-hot in many high schools following the Feb. 14 killings of 14 students and three coaches at a high school in Parkland. When he heard about plans for the walkout, he didnÂt want to join, nor did he want to go to a study hall where school officials wanted all nonprotesters to go. Either choice, he felt, would be making a political statement he didnÂt want to make.He wanted to stay in his classroom, which is what he did, and he was suspended for not following administratorsÂ instructions, which were to either join the protest or go to a study hall. JacobÂs punishment became public after he shared a photo of his suspension notice with a friend, who did the 21stcentury-teen thing to do and shared it online, heedless of the fact that it showed JacobÂs dadÂs name and phone number. The texts and calls to Scott ShoemakerÂs phone began early, along with angry messages to the Ohio school district. There are a number of lessons to be learned here. One is the districtÂs response to the protest Â„ upending classes and insisting that nonprotesting students gather in study halls Â„ was a bit heavyhanded. Administrators not otherwise occupied could have watched over the walkouts while teachers remained with any kids who stayed in the classrooms. Another is one that every social-media user should know, but so many donÂt: Carelessly exposing anyoneÂs contact information can have very serious consequences. Scott Shoemaker said he may have to change his phone number. The most important lessons are that outrageous things read on social media have to be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism, and sharing things you donÂt know to be true could very well be fueling the rancor that seems to be such a permanent part of public life these days. A version of this editorial first appeared in the Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch, a sister paper with GateHouse Media.DonÂt share without thinking ANOTHER VIEW President Trump will never win. Not with the liberal media, anyway. First they were all over his case for not wanting to meet with North KoreaÂs dear leader, Kim Jong Un. Then they ripped him for his tough-talking tweets describing the Âfire and furyÂŽ America would rain down on North Korea if Kim ever fired a nuclear missile at us. Then they were so blind with Trump Hate they couldnÂt see the humor when the president dubbed the dictator Kim ÂRocket Man.ÂŽ And now, with planning meetings for a Trump-Kim summit apparently in the works in Sweden, the liberal media and their favorite foreign policy experts and professional second-guessers are terrified that Trump will sit down with Kim. ItÂll be a while before we find out if President Trump will succeed in reducing North KoreaÂs misbehavior where previous administrations have only failed. His ÂTweet DiplomacyÂŽ is part of a different kind of negotiating strategy that breaks the rules and puts AmericaÂs interests first, not last. His ÂNuclear ButtonÂŽ tweet of Jan. 2 was one of his best and one of his funniest: ÂNorth Korean Leader Kim Jong Un just stated that the ÂNuclear Button is on his desk at all times.Â Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!ÂŽ TrumpÂs straight talk about the nature of the North Korean regime reminded me of my fatherÂs famous ÂEvil EmpireÂŽ Speech in 1983. Most of his staff, everyone in the media and most foreign policy experts of the time went nuts when my father chose on his own and without telling anyone in advance to say the Soviet empire was immoral and built on evil. Everyone on the planet not working for the KGB or the New York Times editorial page knew what Ronald Reagan said was true. But saying Soviet totalitarianism was evil was not something a president of the U.S. was ever supposed to say out loud. In the 1970s and 1980s Americans were being told by the media and the Washington political establishment we had to coexist with the USSR forever, not try to defeat it militarily or economically. It was not politically correct to say America was morally superior to the US SR. But my father knew the truth and was not afraid to say so. A few years later the same thing happened in Iceland when he walked away from the nuclear weapons talks with Mikhail Gorbachev. The media went nuts. They called him a loser. They said he was risking a global nuclear war. They said he was too tough on that nice young liberal man running Russia. We all know how that Cold War story ended the Berlin Wall came down and the USSRÂs empire crumbled into pieces and went out of the evil business. As IÂve noted many times, my fatherÂs basic foreign policy strategy was never complicated ÂWe win, they lose.ÂŽ While I disagree with Trump on many things, heÂs basically taking the same America-first approach, whether itÂs on tariffs and trade or in his dealing with Kim. So now it looks like Rocket Man is coming to the table. It never would have happened if President Trump had not taken the tough stand he took and said the outrageous things he said. As I watch the North Korea cards play out and listen to the naysayers, I see the same characters and hear the same arguments I heard in the 1980s. What the naysayers and foreign policy pros really need to do first is applaud the fact that at long last there is going to be a face-to-face meeting with Kim to discuss nuclear weapons. ThatÂs whatÂs most important. Once the Kim-Trump summit is over, the naysayers can comment or complain all they want about the results.OPPOSING VIEWSTrumping the North Korea NaysayersAll kidding aside: Donald Trump is no longer funny. Entertainers, writers, social observers myself included have relished taking shots at the president. And why not? Jokes about Trump are the lowest-hanging fruits in comedy. But recently we have begun to hear politicians and pundits say, ÂThis is different.ÂŽ The White House is in chaos and the jokes are falling flat. Maybe itÂs time to knock it off. Throughout 2017 I included about 10 minutes of Trump material in my live stage show. As soon as I flashed a giant photo of his orange hair caught in a gust of wind, audiences burst into laughter. When I showed a clip of TrumpÂs guest appearance on ÂCandid CameraÂŽ from back in the 1990s in which he ruined every scene by stumbling over his own ego, the crowd ate it up. IÂve taken it all out because I no longer have the stomach for it. Moreover, jokes about Trump now seem tired, even passe. Looking back over presidential comedy, a benchmark came in 1962 when a little-known performer named Vaughn Meader spoofed John F. Kennedy in an album titled ÂThe First Family.ÂŽ It was mild stuff, kidding JFK about his Ârubber duckyÂŽ and mocking his pronounced Boston accent, yet it sold an incredible 7 million copies. Every president since has been lampooned from Chevy ChaseÂs bumbling Gerald Ford to Will FerrellÂs malaprop-prone George W. Bush. But, except for some dark Nixon humor, notably by the comedian David Frye, modern presidents have generally been mocked with a gentle wink, not a snarl. Trump is different and fatigue is setting in. Comedy Central is practically an all-Trump channel; ÂSaturday Night LiveÂŽ dutifully trots out Alec Baldwin in the role, but increasingly the script isnÂt as funny as whatever Trump actually said that week. Stephen ColbertÂs nightly anti-Trump rants on CBS are becoming strained. Remember, it was ColbertÂs boss, Leslie Moonves, who famously said in 2016 that TrumpÂs campaign Âmay not be good for America, but itÂs damn good for CBS.ÂŽ Has it finally reached a tipping point, where TrumpÂs presidency is too damaging to laugh at?With Trump, the jokeÂs over M i c h a e l R e a g a n Michael Reagan P e t e r F u n t Peter Funt

** Washington County News | Saturday, March 24, 2018 A5 NATION & WORLDBy Erica Werner and Mike DeBonis Washington PostCongress cleared a sweeping $1.3 trillion spending bill early Friday and sent it to President Trump for his signature, staving off a government shutdown with less than 24 hours to spare.Action by the Senate shortly before 1 a.m. capped a day of suspense, including the late-night revelation that the legis-lation had been stalled for hours partly because Sen. James E. Risch (R-Idaho) objected to the renaming of a federal wilderness area after a deceased political rival.Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) also held out against the bill for much of the day Thursday, voicing objec-tions to what he viewed as unnecessary deficit spending while keeping colleagues in the dark about whether he would delay action on the legislation and force a brief government shutdown, as he did last month over an earlier spending deal.Finally, after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) intervened personally with Risch and Paul and the Senate passed a measure striking the provision Risch disliked, both men relented. The Senate passed the 2,232-page spending bill 65-32, about 12 hours after the House had also approved the legislation on a similarly wide bipartisan vote of 256-to-167.ÂMy principle responsi-bility is begging, pleading and cajoling,ÂŽ McConnell ruefully remarked to colleagues on the Senate floor, shortly before the final vote was cast.Late-night dramatics aside, the legislation sparked bitter disputes among Republicans in both chambers, on grounds both of policy and of process.It abandons GOP claims of fiscal discipline in a stark reversal of the prom-ises many Republicans ran on in capturing control of the House in 2010 and the Senate in 2014 as they railed against what they described as a profligate President Barack Obama. And in another about-face, GOP lead-ers tossed aside their own rules and past complaints about Democrats to rush the legislation through the House ahead of the Friday midnight govern-ment shutdown deadline. Lawmakers of both parties seethed, saying they had scant time to read the mammoth bill, which was released less than 17 hours before the House voted.Nonetheless, leaders of both parties declared victory following the leg-islationÂs passage, and at the White House, Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney said Trumpwould sign it.ÂIs it perfect? No. Is it exactly what we asked for in the budget? No. Were we ever going to get that? No. ThatÂs not how the process works,ÂŽ Mulvaney said. ÂThis is what a bill looks like when you have 60 votes in the Senate and the Democrats get a chance to take their pound of flesh.ÂŽThe legislation funds the federal government for the remainder of the 2018 budget year, through Sept. 30, directing $700 billion toward the military and $591 billion to domes-tic agencies. The military spending is a $66 billion increase over the 2017 level, and the nondefense spending is $52billion more than last year.The spending bill is widely expected to be the last major legislation that Congress will pass before the November midterm elections, which had increased pressure to jam the bill full of odds and ends, with provisions addressing everything from gun safety to inva-sive carp.Paul highlighted some of these measures in tweets throughout the day Thursday, and posted a picture of himself hold-ing the hefty bill while glaring balefully at the camera. ÂShame, shame. A pox on both Houses Â„ and parties. HereÂs the 2,232 page, $1.3 trillion, budget-busting Omnibus spending bill,ÂŽ the caption read.Paul was the focus of attention for hours after the House passed the legislation around midday Thursday, because the SenateÂs rules grant a single senator significant latitude to hold up a vote and Paul had done so before. Given the short timeframe, he could have delayed the vote past the Saturday 12:01a.m. dead-line and forced the third government shutdown of the year.But finally, late Thursday night, Paul spoke on the phone with McConnell and subsequently relented, telling The Washington Post that despite his opposition he was prepared to allow votes to go forward. ÂI think if anything weÂve drawn more attention to our opposition to this bill by opposing it than we have in quite awhile, so I think itÂs been successful from that point of view,ÂŽ Paul said.But just as Paul stood down, it emerged that he was not the only Repub-lican senator objecting to the bill. Even as Paul was railing publicly against the legislation, Risch had been complaining behind the scenes, demanding that congressional leaders remove a provision in the bill naming the White Clouds Wilderness after former Democratic governor Cecil D. Andrus of Idaho, according to two congressional aides famil-iar with the dispute.Risch and Andrus, who died last year, had clashed when both served in state government, with Andrus quoted in a 2006 story published by NewWest. net describing Risch as a Âmean, snarly little guy.ÂŽ The renaming provision passed the House in Feb-ruary and has the support of Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho), chairman of a House Appropriations subcommittee.Ultimately the Senate passed a stand-alone measure making the change Risch sought, although Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn (R-Texas) subsequently told reporters that the House was objecting to RischÂs change, meaning the renaming provision he objects to is likely to remain intact.Nonetheless Risch relented and allowed the spending legislation to pass, refusing comment when senators approached him outside the Senate chamber.ÂNo. What part of ÂnoÂ donÂt you understand? ... Do I have a problem with my English? I donÂt have any comment,ÂŽ Risch said.The developments exasperated senators of both parties. ÂThat was ridiculous,ÂŽ Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii) remarked on Twitter after the final vote closed.Throughout the maneu-vering, the ultimate outcome was not in ques-tion: The legislation would pass, bringingbudget increases to federal agen-cies large and small, from the National Institutes of Health to the National Park Service to the Election Assistance Commission.ÂSometimes you save the president from him-self,ÂŽ said Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.), arguing the administration would not want to be in the position of cutting something like the NIH budget if a new pandemic comes along. ÂLook, a new administra-tion always runs on things, and may or may not know government intimately.ÂŽConservatives fumed at the generous increases for many agencies, with some arguing it undercut their partyÂs claims to fiscal restraint.ÂThe Democrats love this bill like the devil loves sin,ÂŽ said Sen. John Neely Kennedy (R-La.). ÂI donÂt understand why when President Obama does what weÂre about to do, itÂs bad for the coun-try, but when we do it, itÂs good for the country.ÂŽOther Republicans, including House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.), argued the legislation ful-filled TrumpÂs governing agenda, including increas-ing military spending and funding a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.ÂThis bill starts con-struction on the wall,ÂŽ he told reporters. ÂIt funds our war on opioids. It invests in infrastructure. It funds school safety and mental health. But what this bill is ultimately about, what weÂve fought for so long, is finally giving our military the tools and the resources it needs to do the job.ÂŽHouse Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) called the bill Âa tremendous victory for the American people,ÂŽ one that keeps domestic agen-cies robustly funded while turning away TrumpÂs push for even more money for the border wall and immigration enforcement.ÂIf you want to think youÂre getting a wall, just think it, and sign the bill,ÂŽ she said.The bill includes $1.6 billion in funding for construction of a border wall, but that number is far short of the $25billion in long-term funding that the administration sought, and Democrats also won tight restrictions on how that money can be spent.Despite weeks of nego-tiations, Democrats were unable to secure protections for young undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children who had been granted reprieves from deportation under an Obama-era directive. Trump announced in September he would end that program, known as Deferred Action for Child-hood Arrivals, by March 5. That deadline was effectively nullified by recent court actions.In late-night drama, Senate passes $1.3 trillion spending bill, averting government shutdownThe Capitol is seen before dawn Wednesday in Washington after a night of negotiating on the government spending bill.

The jockey hit the ground headfirst and suffered a massive trauma.He was removed from life support Thursday afternoon.Flores won 4,650 races in a career that spanned more than three decades. He was the top career earner at Parx, formerly known as Philadelphia Park.STORRS, CONN. Hurley to coach UConn team under inquiryDan Hurley became a hot commodity after coaching Rhode Island to two straight NCAA Tour-naments. On Thursday, he left for a bigger name in New England basketball.Hurley jumped across state lines to join a UConn team that has won four NCAA titles in 20 years but is under NCAA inves-tigation and just finished a second straight losing season. The Huskies fired coach Kevin Ollie this month.ÂThis program, which is part of one of the top public universities in the country, has a champion-ship history and wonderful support from a passionate fan base,ÂŽ Hurley said in a statement. ÂI look forward to continuing this proud tradition.ÂŽHurley was 113-82 in six seasons with the Rams, who went 26-8 this year before losing in the second round of the NCAA Tour-nament to Duke. It was the second straight trip to the tournament for the Rams, who won their first regular-season Atlantic-10 championship.The school said Hurley has agreed to a six-year deal and will receive a package worth $2.75 mil-lion in the first season. The school said further details would be released Friday. The Associated Press By Tom WithersThe Associated PressCLEVELAND Â„ The drama has included turmoil and trades, head-scratching losses, infighting, injuries and illness.ClevelandÂs stormy season seems extracted from the script of a scan-dalous TV soap opera Â„ ÂAll My Cavaliers.ÂŽBut just when it looked as if LeBron James and this group of Cavaliers, some of whom have yet to play together, were about to implode with the postseason in sight, a startling win may have turned them around.ÂI always say there is one game during the season that changes your team,ÂŽ acting coach Larry Drew said follow-ing ClevelandÂs 132-129 win over Toronto. ÂThat game can be early, it can be midway, it can be late. ThereÂs always one game that kind of changes your team, the mindset.ÂAnd I really believe tonightÂs game might have done that for us.ÂŽWith James on a mission to remind the Raptors of his magnifi-cence, the short-handed Cavs, missing five rotational players and coach Tyronn Lue, rallied from a 15-point deficit in the second half Wednesday night to stun the Eastern ConferenceÂs top team and send a message to the NBA.DonÂt count them out.James scored 14 in the fourth and finished with 35 points, 17 assists and didnÂt commit a turn-over in 40 minutes, a stat line not seen since the league began charting turnovers in 1977-78, according to Elias Sports Bureau.At 33, James continues to defy age while padding his impeccable resume. Although HoustonÂs James Harden appears to be a lock to win MVP honors this season, there is no debate about the gameÂs best all-around player.Since Feb. 7, the day before the Cavs decon-structed their roster with three major trades, James is averaging a triple-dou-ble Â„ 30.5 points, 10.4 rebounds and 10.5 assists.James, Cavaliers send message with win Philadelphia Phillies manager Gabe Kapler has said he plans to Â” ip-Â” op outÂ“ elders in the middle of an inning to put his best defensive player in position where the spray charts indicate a batter is most likely to hit the ball. [LYNNE SLADKY/ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE PHOTOS] Modern major league managers are salesmen as much as strategistsBy Ronald BlumThe Associated PressTAMPA, Fla. Â„ Running a major league team for the first time in four seasons, 60-year-old Ron Gardenhire thought about all the data and video rammed into the microchip of his iPad, a slew of statistics his bosses hope transform defeats into triumphs.Baseball wasnÂt like this four decades ago, when Gardy left college to begin his career as an infield prospect in the low Carolina League, down in Lynchburg, Virginia.ÂIf youÂre not changing, youÂre probably not going to last,ÂŽ the new Detroit Tigers manager said. ÂThereÂs so much information out there. You have to use it.ÂŽÂIÂm always going to be an old-school guy. I believe in prep and workouts and all that stuff and taking groundballs,ÂŽ he added. ÂBut the game has changed, and weÂve got a lot of information thatÂs going to help us.ÂŽGone are the days of John McGraw, Leo Durocher, Gene Mauch and Billy Martin, martinets who ran their fiefdoms largely by guts.ÂMany of the managers were probably like the general type of personality,ÂŽ Boston Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said. ÂThey were just very strict: ItÂs my way. This is the way it is. Not all, but a lot of them. I donÂt think that this goes over with this generation the same way. Not only in baseball, but just with the overall population.ÂŽTodayÂs manager is salesman as much as strategist, digesting behind-the-scenes dissections of dozens and persuading play-ers to accept facts over faith. He must have a sweet smile as the franchiseÂs face, sitting in front of a backdrop with spon-sor logos before and after 162 games a year Â„ and hopefully more.ÂThe manager in todayÂs world is an extension of the front officeÂs philosophies and the front officeÂs efforts and someone that you can collabo-rate and work with,ÂŽ Yankees general manager Brian Cash-man said. Gardenhire led Minnesota to six division titles from 2002-14 and was the lone veteran big league manager hired during the offseason. BostonÂs Alex Cora, the New York MetsÂ Mickey Callaway, the New York YankeesÂ Aaron Boone, PhiladelphiaÂs Gabe Kapler and WashingtonÂs Dave Martinez are all rookie skippers. Boone never held an on-field job since retiring as a player. Fresh and friendly are in.ÂThe decisions still need to be made Â„ when are you going to hit/run, when are you going to take out the pitcher, when are you going to bunt,ÂŽ Houston GM Jeff Luhnow said.ÂThe amount of information available to managers is a multiple larger than it was five years ago, but it doesnÂt mean that managers necessarily do anything differently. They still have to look at whatÂs going on on the field, assess it, use their best judgment and make decisions,ÂŽ he said.Managers are certainly free to choose their moves. But if they donÂt work out Â„ or maybe even if they do Â„ theyÂre definitely going to hear about it from fans and the media.GMs, too, usually debrief managers to learn reasoning.ÂIf you talk to Tony La Russa after a game, heÂll tell you, ÂWell I considered these four alternatives and I thought option B was the best option,ÂÂŽ Dombrowski said. A decade or two ago, a man-ager would hear advice from coaches, a GM, an assistant GM and maybe a farm director. These days, the array of front-office titles is expanding like the universe.The World Series champion Astros have a special assistant to the GM for process improve-ment who was once a NASA biomathematician, and a senior director in baseball operations for research and innovation.BostonÂs staff includes a vice president of baseball research and development who oversees a director of baseball systems, a senior analyst of baseball R&D, three baseball R&D ana-lysts, two senior developers, an assistant director and a data architect. The NL cham-pion Los Angeles Dodgers have five senior analysts and four analysts, plus engineers and technicians.The Mets receive data from about five different firms. Sure different from the days when Buck Showalter was a minor league manager in the 1980s and had his wife, Angela, keep color-coded spray charts on hitters.Much of todayÂs info is help-ful. But managers must defend against digital overload clut-tering craniums trying to catch up with 100 mph fastballs or trying to power them past batters.ÂA lot of the data is not really going to be functional to a player Â„ wins above replace-ment, all the things that weÂre talking about that are kind of in the macro,ÂŽ said Mike Scioscia, the senior big league skipper as he starts his 19th season with the Los Angeles Angels.Scioscia prefers players be given more tangible info: ÂWhere do I hit the ball the hardest? What p itch should I look for?ÂŽMaking their pitchBaltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter has worked for several years with a core group of players led by Manny Machado, Adam Jones and Zach Britton.
